Last weigh-in of my 30s and it’s a slight gain, but I’m happily within my target bubble. Fluctuations are normal and you can’t stay bang on target every single week! 🎯
But it got me thinking about the first time I joined Slimming World aged 28, telling myself if I don’t lose the weight before I’m 30 then I NEVER will.
Well, I didn’t manage to reach my target weight before 30. Far from it. I only ended up gaining even more weight as life lifed! 🥴
But my prophecy of never doing it didn’t come true either, because I reached my target weight as I was headed towards the end of my 30s at the age of 39 and am now working towards my first year at target and diamond member status as I head into my 40s! 💎
So, what I’d say to you is don’t set yourself negative goals of “if I don’t do it by X then I’ll never do it” or “if I don’t do it by Y then what’s the point?” because this mindset leads to giving up on yourself.
And while yes, I would have liked to be where I am now ten years ago, this time I didn’t give up on myself and I’m enjoying the results no less for being a decade later! 😆
